Overview
This job aid shows campus administrators how to set up approval routing.
Background
A workflow sends absences and time off to a manager for approval. A campus administrator can choose which type of workflow routes approval requests for each type of absence.
- Reports-to: Requests are routed according to the existing campus reports-to structure. If you use this option, no further setup is needed, as long as your reports-to structure is correct. Only one person can be set as approver. The manager must delegate another manager before going on vacation to ensure approval requests are handled.
- Dynamic group: Requests are routed to one or more approvers who belong to a dynamic group. If you use this option, you must set up the dynamic groups. A dynamic group can contain multiple approvers, but only one approver needs to approve. If a dynamic group has multiple members, delegation is unnecessary.
Reference
To set up dynamic groups, see Securing Data: Authorize Data by Dynamic Group.
